[issue14915] pysetup may leave a package in a half-installed state

[Éric Araujo]

IIUC checking trove classifiers / requires-python or something else before installing may be a good idea, but this bug is about something else: a project can be half-installed.  You could reproduce it with a Python 2 project with one file containing a syntax error (I think unittest2 is an example, see #10530).
